CompassionWorks Spring Training 2019

I want to welcome you into a space where you feel safe, heard, and valued. There are so many reasons that someone walks into my office- and every single one is valid and important. If you are struggling to process a past or recent trauma, finding yourself in a battle with your internal critic, or struggling to be your most authentic self due to fear or shame, you have come to the right place. It is my privilege to be able to partner with you on your path towards healing, clarity, and confidence. I know it isn’t easy to open up about your experiences, those well-guarded thoughts or feelings, and I will honor that.
While the therapy approaches I use are based in research, your specific needs come first. I don’t believe in cookie-cutter plans or reliance on worksheets. I use a variety of approaches but primarily utilize EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and mindfulness-based exercises.
One of the most beautiful things about therapy is the partnership between the therapist and the client. We will work together to filter through what is on the surface and address the root of what is causing your pain, discomfort, or stress. Call today to schedule an appointment or set up a 15 minute phone consultation. I look forward to meeting you.
